Fortunately, the greater Los Angeles area has a large number of professional actors who also happen to be ravens. Today I was approached by this pair, who, hearing of my (admittedly tenuous) connection to the show (”guys,” I kept saying, “I’m just a Kickstarter backer”), insisted I record this audition tape and forward it to the appropriate parties.

So here you go. You’ll note that they:

work well together

can perform complex blocking with minimal rehearsal

do their own stunts

They’re currently involved in another production, but anticipate being free by the time Poe Party begins shooting.

It rained yesterday, so I went to the marsh this morning hoping to see a Rhopalomyia californica emergence. I’ll post separately about my bug hunt, but in the meantime here’s the water and sky that kept distracting me.
